Those Snake Island Kids (v1 Those Kids)

A sailing-camping holiday on a small Australian island is planned around some pirate fantasies and an Optimist sailing dinghy. But when a series of unexpected events unfold, the youngsters need to dig deep into their personal reserves, and the treasures they all gain are very different from the ones Jake has set out to find. An uplifting tale of youthful naivety, camaraderie, calamity and courage which is already becoming an international, classic with appeal to all free spirits in the nine to ninety-nine readership bracket. This unashamedly Ransome genre illustrated book brings ‘Swallows and Amazons’ squarely into the 21st Century, written by an accomplished writer who writes of the lifestyle of his own five sons – brought up aboard a traditional ketch sailing the South Seas.
